Escaped al-Qaida prisoner surrenders
Yemen ? One of 23 al-Qaida convicts who escaped from a Yemeni prison in February has surrendered, a news agency reported Sunday.
Hazam Saleh Majali turned himself in to authorities within the past two days, according to Yemen’s official Saba news agency.
The Yemeni was convicted of having a role in the 2002 attack on the French tanker Limburg and sentenced to death.
Majli was the sixth from the group of 23 to have surrendered, the agency said.
The prisoners broke out on Feb. 3 through a roughly 200-yard tunnel that ended inside a mosque. Among those at large is a militant convicted in the 2000 attack on the destroyer USS Cole in Aden’s harbor.
